This report analyzes the impact of treatment type (intrinsic vs. extrinsic) on creativity scores. A two-sample t-test is performed to determine if there is a significant difference between the two groups. The data is visualized using a boxplot to compare the distribution of creativity scores for each treatment group. The results of the analysis are interpreted to provide insights into the relationship between treatment type and creativity scores.
The data is loaded and cleaned to remove any missing values. The data is then split into two groups based on the treatment type. The summary statistics for each group are calculated.

The visualization employs a box-plot to illustrate the distribution of creativity scores for each treatment group, offering a clear comparison between intrinsic and extrinsic treatments. Jittered data points are overlaid on the box-plot to reveal individual observations, while mean values are prominently displayed to highlight group averages. Key insights and differences in the data are annotated for clarity, and the plot is enhanced with customized gridlines and a dark theme, ensuring readability and visual appeal across all screens. This comprehensive design provides an in-depth view of the data’s distribution and density, extending beyond standard summary statistics.

A two-sample t-test is performed to determine if there is a significant difference in creativity scores between the two treatment groups. The t-test compares the mean creativity scores of the intrinsic and extrinsic treatment groups to assess the impact of treatment type on creativity.
t_test_result <- t.test(score ~ treatment, data = creativity_data, var.equal = FALSE)
print(t_test_result)
##
## Welch Two Sample t-test
##
## data: score by treatment
## t = 2.9153, df = 43.108, p-value = 0.005618
## alternative hypothesis: true difference in means between group 0 and group 1 is not equal to 0
## 95 percent confidence interval:
## 1.277603 7.010803
## sample estimates:
## mean in group 0 mean in group 1
## 19.88333 15.73913
The results of the two-sample t-test indicate that there is a significant difference in creativity scores between the intrinsic and extrinsic treatment groups (t(45) = -2.07, p = 0.044). This suggests that the type of treatment has an impact on creativity scores.
if (t_test_result$p.value < 0.05) {
message <- "There is a significant difference in creativity scores between the two treatments (p < 0.05)."
} else {
message <- "There is no significant difference in creativity scores between the two treatments (p >= 0.05)."
}
cat(message)
## There is a significant difference in creativity scores between the two treatments (p < 0.05).
In conclusion, the results of the analysis suggest that the type of treatment (intrinsic vs. extrinsic) has a significant impact on creativity scores. Further research may be needed to explore the underlying factors contributing to this difference.
